<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Shore Leave>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CIV_Capt_Marek2 says:
@::finishes his daily shore-leave-late-in-the-morning meditation exercises and decides to take a stroll and torture some rookie maintenance crewmember::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
::Having returned to the station, Wally is walking the dog on the promenade::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
@::In Archeology Lab, finishing up investigation on the object found in the trader's shop.::  Metron: I wish I was wrong on this, but this thing looks legitimate.  Now I need to figure out what the official channels are to get this to the Trill Embassy and back home.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Heading to the promenade on the Starbase to shop for some items that he doesn't want to replicate onboard::

TO_Lt_LVor says:
::Still on the Starbase, L'Vor heads to a phaser range in order to get some target shooting, as the ship is in powered-down mode while being readied for their next mission::

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
@::Wandering around the Cherokee, checking up on all the work being done::

CIV_Capt_Marek2 says:
@::tugs his uniform shirt, and exits his quarters... with no predetermined bearing::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
@::Locks the item back in the secure locker and heads out.::  Metron: I'll be back.  I trust you with this, but no one else gets access.  If you can't pull rank, use my rank.  If that don't work, it is technically private property so try that.  Although if it comes to that just call me.

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
::Stops at a pet store and buys some things and has them sent to his quarters on the ship::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
@::Finds a console and starts to look up how to go about the transfer to get the carriage back where it belongs.::

CIV_Capt_Marek2 says:
@::walks slowly, with some unworried timing, checking some panels, verifying the dust on some structural beams.::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
@Self: Yes, I see that.  Didn't want to bother anyone else but this is far beyond my rank.

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
@::Checking on mission pod installment::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Browsing as he walks along the Promenade’s shops and restaurants, he eyes a Plycraft Eames Style Leather Lounge Chair & Ottoman in perfect condition, he enters the store intending to purchase it::

CIV_Capt_Marek2 says:
@::decides to take a look to Engineering Room.  Takes a Turbolift and directs it to Main Engineering::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::a Shopkeeper approaches Isaac, who is laser locked focused on the plycraft::  

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
<Shopkeeper> CEO:  May I be of assistance? 

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
Shopkeeper:  Yes, I was eyeing this Plycraft ::Points to it::  I'd like to purchase it! 

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
::Walks to the place where the ship is docked and enters.  Proceeds to quarters::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
@*CO*: Captain Daniels?  Lieutenant Trix here.  I've got an issue I need your assistance with when you get a minute.  Just need you to sign off on a report, but it may have...follow up once it plays out.

CIV_Capt_Marek2 says:
@::arrives at Main Engineering and starts walking with some martial air between the busy crewmembers frantically finishing their work::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
<Shopkeeper> CEO: Yes, it is available, it is quite expensive though

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
@*SO*: I'll be there very shortly, Lieutenant.

SO_Lt_Trix says:
@*CO*: Yes sir, thank you sir.

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
@::Enters quarters:: Fred:  Well, boy, welcome home.  I hope you'll be happy on board a starship.  It's not the beach but, there is nothing like a beach, right?

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
Shopkeeper:  Not a problem, I've been assigned from one starship to another with very little shore assignments, so I've amounted a great amount of credits ::The shopkeeper shows him the price on her PADD, and Isaac swallows with the amount shown::  That is fine!  ::keys in his authorization code, and ownership is immediately transferred::  Please have it beamed over to the USS Cherokee for me as soon as practical, and Thank you, I've always wanted one of these!  

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
<Shopkeeper> CEO:  Enjoy it Sir!  The chair will be transported over to your ship within the hour, have a safe next mission!  

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
@::Begins the chore of comparing invoices with the supplies coming on board to make sure we got everything including stuff he ordered::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Isaac turns and exits the shop, and then down the promenade and heads back to the Cherokee::

CIV_Capt_Marek2 says:
@::goes next to the main console in Engineering, and watches a crewmember doing some calibrations on the panel::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
@::Sees his purchases from the pet store arrived before he did::  Fred: Pretty good service, huh?  I think because I'm a Captain now, everyone seems to try a little harder when I'm around.  ::Finds a good spot to put the doggy bed and makes sure Fred has some of his toys to chew on so, he won't eat his stuff::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
@Computer: Computer, Where is Lieutenant Trix?

Host SMSteve says:
@<Computer> CO: Lieutenant Trix is in Science Lab 1.

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
@Computer: Thank you.  Fred: I got to go out for a bit.  Be good.  ::Scratches dog behind his ear and exits quarters.  Feels a bit guilty leaving the dog alone::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
@::Goes to Science Lab 1 and enters::  SO: What can I do for you, Lieutenant?

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Enters the airlock from the Starbase and crosses the airbridge to the Cherokee, after being cleared by Starbase Security::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
CO: Captain, while on the Starbase yesterday I found something.  Something that shouldn't have been there.  A Trill Symbiont Carriage, an artifact that joined Trills find very...private.

OPS_Ens_Granger says:
::Recruits some of his fellow OPS people to help out with the inventory::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
CO: I've confirmed it is indeed real, and want to return it to the Trill Embassy, but walking up with what is likely a stolen artifact would raise questions if not done properly.  So I just need you to sign off on this report so it can be Transported directly to the Trill Embassy on the station to make its way home.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
 ::Enters through the ship's airlock, after requesting permission to come aboard from the Officer of the Deck standing watch at the airlock::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
SO: How did the carriage get to Betazed?  ::Takes the report and signs it::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
CO: I wish I knew.  They are built to last, and honestly most people not involved with the Symbiosis Commission don't even know they exist.  Shopkeeper got it from a supplier whose background check proved rather flimsy and made up.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Heads to the nearest TL to get to his quarters::

SO_Lt_Trix says:
CO: I've tried to back trace it, but that isn't exactly my specialty.  I'm hoping with the report in that someone with the right skills will take interest in it.

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
SO: Sounds like you have a real mystery on your hands.  Let me know if I can help in anyway.

SO_Lt_Trix says:
CO: Thank you sir.  We're still trying to wrap our minds around just how it could have gotten here.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Arrives in his quarters, and his Plycraft chair and ottoman have already been beamed aboard, and the chair was placed exactly where he wanted it, he sits down in it and immediately falls asleep::

Host CO_Capt_Daniels says:
<Fred>: Currently, tearing apart a throw pillow from the Captain's couch::
